about

Utah wrote "Going Away" originally to eulogize the Christian anarchist organizer, activist, and writer Ammon Hennacy.

lyrics

Is that the moon I have seen over there in the west
Or just the headlight's gleam, C & O Express
I know you're gone, whatever I say
It won't be long before I make up my mind and go away

Is that sun coming up on the eastern shore
Or just the coal bed glow behind the firebox door
I know you're gone, whatever I say
It won't be long before I make up my mind and go away

Did you see that fool, he can't hear the whistle
Blind old man caught out on the trestle
He can't go up, he can't go back
Train keeps coming, pushed him off the track

Now the storms may blow and the wind may rise
I long to go where the fast mail flies
I know he's gone, whatever I say
It won't be long before I make up my mind and go away
